I'm not saying this won't work, because clearly it will. But does it take into account a hierarchy? Can your adminareahref supply settings that are automatically inherited by it's children? Or supply fuseactions that can be automatically executed when a child is called upon to perform some action? Does it allow for built-in access modifiers? >Well, there's the rub I think.

What about Fusebox is "overblown"? I don't think it could be much simpler: core files, configuration file (fusebox.xml), circuit files (circuit.xml). That's all there is to the framework; the rest is just application code. >Not necessarily. I may not be agreeing, but I am listening carefully >to both you and Brian.

I truly appreciate anyone who is willing to objectively discuss any topic. If everyone agreed on everything, the world would be a pretty boring place. But again, when you ask if "FB is worth the trouble to implement", I'm just missing what all the "trouble" is? Can you be specific? >I've pre-ordered the FB4 book and, when I find the time (the learning >curve is at least half the problem, I think) I'll try and implement it >on my GridMonger tool.

Sean needed a project >(http://corfield.org) to work on to get a true feel for FB and so do I. Sounds like a great idea. Please don't hesitate (not that I think you would) to post questions here or to the very helpful community at www.fusebox.org.
